Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson unabashedly threw his support behind Vivek Ramaswamy as a prospective Vice Presidential candidate alongside the esteemed former President Donald Trump. In a fiery and impassioned declaration, Carlson emphasized Vivek’s remarkable transformation on the campaign trail, lauding his newfound authenticity and unwavering dedication to conservative principles.
“I’ve gotta say, Vivek is growing on me,” Carlson exclaimed, taking a bold stand against the relentless criticism leveled at Ramaswamy. “People are always hounding him, calling him fake and all that nonsense. But let me tell you, folks, Vivek has really stepped up his game. His positions have become more genuine and heartfelt, and I can’t help but admire that.”
Tucker Reveals His Pick For Trump's Vice President Nominee:
"I watch him with Nikki Haley and I'm like, 'this is a guy who's very offended by her views.' He's not attacking her because she's a woman, he's attacking her because he actually thinks her views are terrible."

During a riveting segment on his show, Carlson fervently expressed his admiration for Vivek’s unapologetic stance when engaging with political adversaries. “I watched him go toe-to-toe with Nikki Haley, and let me tell you, he didn’t hold back. It wasn’t about her gender – it was about his unwavering belief that her policies are just downright disastrous for this great nation. And that, my friends, is what I call integrity,” Carlson proclaimed with fervor.
Ramaswamy, a distinguished entrepreneur renowned for his unyielding opposition to “woke” ideology, has boldly positioned himself outside the conventional political landscape. Nonetheless, his name has consistently surfaced in discussions regarding his potential role as Trump’s running mate. Emphasizing the strength of their personal interactions, including intimate dinners and productive meetings, coupled with Trump’s glowing commendations of Ramaswamy’s steadfast support, speculations about his possible involvement in a Trump-led administration have surged.
The resounding endorsement from a prominent figure like Carlson reverberates strongly within Republican circles. Carlson’s remarks reverberate at a pivotal juncture as the Republican party gears up for the impending election cycle. Amid escalating conjecture about Trump’s potential running mate, Vivek’s unwavering political stance solidifies his position as a formidable contender in the grueling race for the Vice Presidency.
In stark contrast, Carlson has vehemently opposed the notion of Trump’s re-election if Haley were to secure the Vice Presidential spot. He has fervently criticized Haley, deeming her antithetical to the nation’s interests and vehemently opposing her inclusion on the ticket.
Despite initial reluctance toward governmental roles, Ramaswamy appears to be gradually warming up to the prospect of joining forces with Trump, particularly in the event that he fails to clinch the party’s nomination for the 2024 Presidential race. Simultaneously, Haley, another contender, has been confronted head-on by Ramaswamy, who has lambasted her as a “RINO” and criticized her stance on foreign policy on numerous occasions.
Following a scintillating Republican presidential debate in November, Ramaswamy intensified his scathing rebukes of Haley, honing in on her post-United Nations career. “Her real foreign policy experience wasn’t during her tenure at the UN,” Vivek asserted. “It was the windfall she reaped afterward. Following her resignation, her family launched a military contracting firm: Allied Defense LLC. If the mainstream media were doing their due diligence, Allied Defense would be compelled to disclose their clientele.”
Ramaswamy also censured Haley for purportedly amassing undisclosed speaking fees and corporate stock options while pursuing a presidential bid, likening her actions to “Hillary Clinton on steroids.” “Whether it’s Biden or Haley, these aren’t individuals we should entrust with the decision to send our children to potentially perish in someone else’s war,” he concluded with palpable fervor.
Ramaswamy has consistently voiced his disapproval of Haley on a myriad of issues, fervently espousing his convictions. “Let’s face it, when the bombs detonate, her bank account flourishes. That’s Nikki Haley’s modus operandi. As far as I’m concerned, she’s never earned an honest dollar in her life.”
